Manasia Zoelle Bethea graced us with her presence on December 7, 2017. God came and took His precious angel with him on December 31, 2017.

Manasia was the sweetest, most beautiful and loveable baby you could have met. She was very alert on things. She loved to smile and the spirit of God was upon her. You could have conversations with her and it was almost like she knew what you were saying. She was and will always be loved by everyone especially those whom she connected with. Even though her time wasn’t long enough I still thank God for blessing us with His angel.

She leaves to cherish her memories: her mother, Regina Bethea of Sanford, NC; father, Shamonte Gilmore of Sanford, NC; grandmother, Kimberly Bethea of Sanford, NC and Rhonda Lester Gilmore of Sanford, NC; grandfather, Steven Gilmore of Carthage, NC; godparents, Minister David and Robin McClurkin of Broadway, NC; and a host of aunts, uncles, cousins and friends.
